Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for transporting a fluid, in which the water content of the fluid is not changed substantially before and after transportation, and the fluid having been transported can be used immediately. More specifically, it relates to a method for transporting a fluid, the method being more effective when a liquid having an azeotropic composition with water, which is difficult to be dehydrated once it contains a certain amount or more of water, is transported for a long period of time by using a ship or the like.
  • Ethanol used as a fuel is produced by distilling and refining a crude product obtained from a biological raw material such as corn, and dehydrating the refined product to at least 99.7% by weight.
  • a mixture of ethanol and water has an azeotropic point so that it cannot be concentrated exceeding 95% by weight of concentration of ethanol, which is an azeotropic composition, by the ordinary distillation method.
  • a method for dehydration of ethanol a method has been known in which a dilute ethanol aqueous solution is distilled in a distilling column so as to be concentrated to a point close to the azeotropic point of an ethanol-water system, and then an entrainer is added, and dehydration is accomplished by azeotropic distillation.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a method for transporting a fluid, in which even if the fluid is transported for a long period of time, dehydration after transportation is not needed, and the transported fluid can be used immediately after transportation.
  • the present invention can provide a method for transporting a fluid, comprising steps of dehydrating some of the transportation fluid during transportation by using a dehydration system comprising a separation membrane through which water permeates, and returning the dehydrated fluid to the transportation fluid so as to keep the water content of the transportation fluid in a fixed range.
  • the transportation fluid is a liquid and the dehydration system comprises a heater for heating the liquid to a temperature in the range in which the liquid does not boil, and a membrane separation apparatus for dehydrating the heated liquid
  • the membrane separation apparatus is a pervaporation method apparatus comprising a primary side chamber extending in an up and down direction to introduce the liquid from a lower portion thereof and discharge it from an upper portion thereof, a separation membrane in contact with the primary side chamber to allow water in the liquid to permeate through as a gas, and a secondary side chamber being located on an opposite side to the primary side chamber with the separation membrane being held therebetween and being under a pressure lower than that in the primary side chamber.
  • a heater for heating the liquid to a temperature in the range in which the liquid does not boil is arranged in an upper portion of the secondary side chamber, and a suction port of a vacuum producer for reducing a pressure is connected to a lower portion of the secondary side chamber, whereby heat convection from the upper portion to the lower portion is formed in the secondary side chamber to heat the separation membrane.
  • a suction port of a vacuum producer for reducing a pressure is connected to a lower portion of the secondary side chamber, whereby heat convection from the upper portion to the lower portion is formed in the secondary side chamber to heat the separation membrane.
  • the water content of the transportation fluid is not changed substantially before and after transportation owing to the dehydration during transportation, and the fluid having been transported can be used immediately.
  • the transported liquid can be used immediately. Also, utilization of exhaust heat of the ship or the like can reduce the dehydration cost.
  • the transportation for a fluid is not subject to any special restriction and may include a vehicle such as a freight car and a truck and a ship.
  • the present invention may be especially effective in use of a ship navigating on the humid sea generally for a long period of time. The reason for this is that it is difficult to accomplish dehydration during transportation by using the distillation method such as azeotropic distillation because of jolting, vibrations and the like of the transportation itself.
  • the fluid to be transported is not to be particularly limited and the present invention may be suitable for a liquid or a gas in which a change in water content caused by moisture absorption during transportation is to be avoided. It may preferably include ethanol, propanol and acetic acid. It may be more preferably a fluid whose mixture with water has an azeotropic point, such as ethanol and propanol.
  • the water content of the fluid in which a change in water content before and after transportation is to be avoided or in which water content is to be lowered than that before transportation may differ depending on application purposes after transportation.
  • ethanol preferably 99.7% by weight or higher purity may be transported.
  • it may be also effective in transportation of absolute ethanol having purity exceeding 95% by weight which is an azeotropic composition because it is difficult to be dehydrated once moisture is absorbed.
  • propanol is used for cleaning semiconductors, almost water-free propanol has to be transported because a high purity is required.
  • Figure 1 shows an example of transportation using a ship.
  • a fluid to be transported is stored in a tank 10.
  • Some of the fluid is supplied to a dehydration system 20 comprising a separation membrane through which water permeates, by using a pump 41.
  • the fluid having been dehydrated is returned to the fluid tank 10, and water produced by dehydration is collected in a water storage tank 30.
  • the water in the water storage tank 30 can be discarded to the sea if allowable.
  • the water in the water storage tank 30 contains a very small amount of fluid to be transported, it can be returned to a fluid refining process after transportation so as to obtain the fluid out of the water.
  • the dehydration system 20 requires heating, the exhaust heat of the ship can be utilized.
  • sea water can be utilized.
  • the dehydration system may preferably comprise a membrane separation apparatus for using the pervaporation (PV) method.
  • This membrane separation apparatus preferably comprises a primary side chamber extending in an up and down direction to introduce the liquid from a lower portion thereof and discharge it from an upper portion thereof, a separation membrane in contact with the primary side chamber to allow water in the liquid to permeate through as a gas, and a secondary side chamber being located on the opposite side to the primary side chamber with the separation membrane held therebetween and being under a pressure lower than that in the primary side chamber.
  • the dehydration system may preferably comprise a membrane separation apparatus for using the vaporpermeation (VP) method.
  • the separation membrane used for the PV method achieves a molecule sieving effect, allowing water vapor, which is a small molecule gas, to permeate through, while preventing vaporization gas of transportation liquid, which is a large molecule gas, from permeating through.
  • the separation membrane is not particularly limited as long as it does not react with the transportation liquid and has resistance to heating and depressurization.
  • the separation membrane used for the PV method may be preferably made of inorganic material and may be preferably a porous membrane having fine pores having preferably 10 angstrom or smaller pore diameter which is controlled precisely.
  • a preferred example may include a carbon membrane, a silica membrane and a zeolite membrane each having 10 angstrom or smaller pore diameter.
  • the separation membrane used for the VP method achieves a molecule sieving effect, allowing water vapor, which is a small molecule gas, to permeate through, while preventing the transportation gas, which is a large-molecule gas, from permeating through.
  • This separation membrane is not particularly limited as long as it does not react with the transportation gas and has resistance to heating and depressurization.
  • a permeation flux is a rate at which water permeates the separation membrane as a gas, and provides an index of the membrane performance of the separation membrane.
  • the permeation flux increases as the temperature of the water-containing liquid to be treated increases.
  • the liquid is preferably heated by using a heater before passing through the separation membrane.
  • a phenomenon called cavitation in which a mixture of gas and liquid exists occurs. The cavitation causes erosion of the membrane so that the liquid has to be kept at a temperature at which the liquid is not gasified.
  • a permeation flux of 1 to 3 kg/m 2 h can be obtained.
  • the flow velocity of 95% by weight ethanol to be permeated is adjusted according to the permeation flux and is typically 0.5 to 1 m/sec.
  • the degree of depressurization of the secondary side chamber is also adjusted according to the permeation flux and is typically 10 to 100 Torr.
  • the permeation flux can be increased, in other words, if the permeation rate of water can be increased, efficient dehydration can be accomplished.
  • the present inventors have found that when water is removed from the liquid by using the PV method, since the temperatures of the liquid and the separation membrane decrease from a liquid inlet to a liquid outlet, the highest permeation flux can be obtained in the vicinity of the liquid inlet that is in contact with the heated liquid, but the permeation flux decreases subsequently and only a low permeation flux can be obtained in the vicinity of the liquid outlet, resulting in a low permeation flux as a whole. It is believed that although gaseous water permeates the separation membrane, the temperature of the separation membrane is decreased by the heat of vaporization absorbed by the gasification of water. This phenomenon occurs in the PV method for treating liquid, but does not occur in the VP method for treating gas. To apply the VP method to liquid, the liquid has to be gasified, and the exhaust heat of transportation can also be utilized for gasification.
  • a heater is arranged at an upper portion of the secondary side chamber near the liquid outlet, and the suction port of a pressure reducer such as a vacuum pump is connected to a lower portion of the secondary side chamber near the liquid inlet so that heat convection directed from the upper portion to the lower portion is formed in the secondary side chamber, thereby the temperature distribution of the separation membrane can be uniformized.
  • the heater may include an electric heater and a steam heater.
  • An exhaust heat of transportation may be utilized.
  • an inert dry gas such as nitrogen or argon may be introduced from a part around the upper portion of the secondary side chamber.
  • a dry gas can be introduced at a flow rate of 0.1 to 5 m/sec, preferably 0.1 to 2 m/sec. The dry gas may be heated before being introduced.
  • the permeation flux increases as a temperature of the water-containing liquid to be treated increases.
  • the liquid may be preferably heated to a temperature in such a range that the liquid does not boil, preferably to a temperature in the range of from the temperature of 10 to 30°C lower than the boiling temperature of the liquid to the temperature just before the liquid boils.
  • the specific temperature range may differ depending on the kind of liquid to be dehydrated. For example, when 99.7% by weight ethanol is obtained from 95% by weight ethanol, the 95% by weight ethanol may be heated to a temperature in the range of from 70°C to the temperature just before it boils (lower than 80°C).
  • the liquid boiling temperature is raised by pressurizing the primary side chamber, thereby the liquid can be treated at a higher temperature by the separation membrane without gasification of the liquid so that the permeation flux can be improved.
  • the boiling point of 95% by weight ethanol is 80°C at atmospheric pressure (1 atm.)
  • the boiling point thereof is 90°C at 1.5 atm. and 100°C at 2 atm, 110°C at 3 atm., 120°C at 4 atm. and 150°C at 10 atm.
  • the liquid may be pressurized in the range in which the liquid is not thermally decomposed and to a pressure which the separation membrane can withstand.
  • the liquid may be pressurized to preferably more than 1 atm.
  • the thermal decomposition temperature of ethanol is about 200°C.
  • the pressurization of the liquid before being introduced into the membrane separation apparatus and of the liquid in the primary side chamber can be performed, for example, by using a booster pump before the liquid to be introduced into the membrane separation apparatus is heated.

  • the pressure of the secondary side chamber 25 is reduced by a vacuum pump 29.
  • the liquid supplied from the tank 10 may be heated by the heat exchanger 21 to a temperature as high as possible in the range in which the liquid does not boil, and is introduced into the primary side chamber 23 of the membrane separation apparatus 22.
  • Water contained by the liquid in the primary side chamber 23 permeates the separation membrane 24, moves into the secondary side chamber 25, is cooled and condensed by a cooler (for example, a heat exchanger 27), and is recovered by a gas-liquid separation apparatus 28.
  • the dehydrated liquid in the primary side chamber 23 is discharged out of the primary side chamber 23 and is returned to the fluid storage tank 10.
